This is the 3rd week or so of our vacation in the war zone. Israel is one of my favorite war zones btw, since 1) i lived in tel aviv for quite a while and t-a is an awesome city 2) long summer 3) great nature 4) very nice and friendly people 5) there is always stuff to do 6) since it’s a small country, everything is close 7) and many more things that are cool .

So far, we have been to Eilat, a city at the Red Sea, between Jordan and Egypt. Eilat is considered to be one of the best and most beautiful places to go scuba diving, since the variety of corals and underwater creatures there is amazing. We stayed ( of course ) in the most awesome hotel, called Orchid, it is a Thai-style hotel almost right on the border with Egypt. We did loads of stuff in Eilat - went to the underwater observatory, which has sharks, stingrays, fluorescent weird fish and what not - most in their natural habitat - you just go downstairs and see the bottom of the sea with all it’s wonders; had a jeep ride in the desert, where some rocks are over 80 million years old, ate with bedouins; saw lots of dolphins swimming around at the dolphin reef beach; rode camels and ate some great food, etc.

Also, Zhyin played 2 parties here already - PsySpirit party in the forest near Jerusalem and Moksha party at Sakaya bar, alongside with Markus from X-Dream. I enjoyed both of the parties, the party in the forest was underground, with a great crowd, everyone loved the sets of dj Zhyin and were freaking out alot. There were also wild animals in that forest, when we were driving to the place at night we heard many coyotes’ howling (was kinda scary lol), and lost sheep, that were wandering around trying to steal ppl’s food and stashed goodies . On the way back, in the morning, we totally got lost in the forest and almost got a blair witch experience going in circles, but, after a couple of hours, we found our way out, feeling happy and ready to be tour guides in this place.

The party in Sakaya bar was in Jaffo - an old port of Tel Aviv ( also, one of my favorite places), right on the beach. The place was unbelievably stuffed with people (no way of showing any of your funky dance moves or getting to the bathroom ), but it was lots of fun! People really loved Zhyin’s set and were screaming and freaking out properly, the way it is supposed to be. Zhyin played after Markus (X-Dream) so it was pretty cool to meet the guy, cuz we love X-Dream alot. We got a super V.I.P. service from some dude in a red shirt ( thank you, dude in a red shirt!), he was constantly giving us drinks, cigarettes and what not, and he also got me a rose in the end of the party. We found out that the guy doesn’t work in the bar or anything, so, wherever the miracle man came from and how he managed to get all the stuff for us, thanks to him again!

Monday Zhyin has an interview at a radio station in Tel-Aviv and, i guess, more gigs and more fun will be coming up, so, there will surely be lots of stuff to write about.
